I can also remember how one of his favorite running gags would be to pick up another Dr. Seuss book, take a deep breath, and immediately launch into "Big A, Little A, what begins with A". I would get *so* annoyed. Read to your kids, people!!!

I will never wear tights, I will never wear tweed, but the sight of hal delicately placing a silver button on each cuff made my brain vibrate at a frequency to shatter glass.

I am a lifelong dress hater but a friend walked me through a bit of the Dressmaker game and oh my god. At one point after we'd settled on the silhouette for a fall-themed daywear dress, the words "yeah, just throw on a nice pair of tights and this would be perfect for a mid-60s day" came out of me.

Maaan I am 34 years old and I can still remember the exact cadence of my dad reciting "Big A, little a, what begins with a? Aunt Annie's alligators, a, a, a"

seen a bunch of dudebro types playing dressmaker & getting super into it and that's a positive i think, a reminder that the "feminine" can be of universal interest to everyone, but lmao men can never again pretend to not understand their gf's tastes. you know what a juliette-bishop sleeve is now

I think it's truly like they all got together and were like "we can't let the Wokes win, everyone has to band together and promote the new Harry Potter show, I know we are usually each other's competition but this affects us all and we billionaires need to stick together as a team"

I feel like part of it is because the ones who've been purposefully shit are either older (Julian Clary), or humble about it (Frankie Boyle). And most of the bile seems to be directed at Alex for being Like That rather than the entire concept of the show.

I was just thinking about this the other day. Chuck was never a work of art but I enjoyed the concept and the characters for the first couple of seasons. The level to which this show jumped the shark and became a thing of utter garbage in every aspect is almost incomprehensible.

there are many reasons I think Night Watch is the best Discworld book it has some of Terry’s best character work, and sharpest social commentary, and tightest plotting, and getting to see the younger version of everyone is a blast and also it has maybe the best stupid pun he ever wrote

TYRANNOSAURUS CAINE🦖 Dinosaurs were a staple of the 90s, found in computer edutainment and forever in our childhood imaginations. Sure, Caine COULD be a bee, but a T-Rex is whimsical, clumsy, scary, but also can be friendly! And I think that's a match made in heaven! #tadc #theamazingdigitalcircus
Caine from The Amazing Digital Circus, given the highest honor I could ever bestow upon my favorite characters of all time:
Being turned into a dinosaur.

Multiple doodles of Caine as a T-Rex, with one as just him cosplaying a little bit as a dinosaur.

His T-Rex form comes in two variants: "In the flesh" and "fossilized." The first is just his little self with a Tyrannosaurus set of jaws, tiny little dino hands, big dino legs for stompin', and a long tail. The other form is the same, though his jaws are skeleton white and his body is somewhat see-through, revealing his skeleton underneath.

Other doodles include him stomping towards you with his eyes low and his mouth open. He's being playful, though he looks like he's hunting you down by accident. It's not his fault he looks menacing!

Another is him in a field of flowers. Bees surround him as he takes a dino stroll. Underneath is a funfact: Bees first started appearing during the Cretaceous period, following the dawn of flowering plants. Technically, Tyrannosaurus Rex was around for some of the first bee ancestors.

Other doodles include him sleeping as a rex, and then him being completely fossilized as he assumes the classic Opisthotonic Death Pose.™

Finally, it's just canon Caine in a dinosaur themed fit, with dino footprint soles on his shoes, a dinosaur themed hoodie and tail, cyan and red 3-D glasses reminiscent of the 90s, and sharper teeth as he poses happily for the piece.

this is a very thoughtful and nuanced piece. i think this paragraph is especially important to keep in mind. a lot of people are talking about geller as if he has spent the last ten years doing his best to atone for what he did, or asking if ten years of "good work" can outweigh one rape.
Regardless of whether or not you believe that rapists should not have to disclose their histories of sexual violence to their co-workers, I don't think Geller should have agreed to collaborate with me - especially for a video about James Franco - knowing that I've often written about living as a survivor of sexual violence (which I assume he knew because he knew of me and it was the subject of my most popular essay). I feel as though I was a small link in a larger chain of survivors used - deliberately or not - as props in a greater project of image rehabilitation. Every collaboration Geller did with an outspoken victim of sexual assault helped to legitimize his public image, and it seems none of us were given the choice of making an informed decision whether or not to support that project. While it's possible that Geller has deconstructed, his actions don't align with the argument that he's spent the last decade "accounting."

The pain in his voice when he realized that Zooble was skipping out on an adventure that he'd crafted specifically with them in mind hit home so hard that I had to take a break. This show should come with a content warning for Dungeon Masters specifically.

A good fresh Star Trek take on those fake isekai title jokes
A tumblr screenshot showing a post and two reblog responses, reading:
1. "star trek would be the ideal fictional universe to get trapped in because you'd explain your situation and they'd be like yeah makes sense. no further questions. fortunately we can use the mysterious warp signature emitting from this system's icy moon to counterface with the solar radiation and slingshot you back home"
2. "I'm from a universe where your world is all a work of fiction." Benjamin Sisko, nodding. "That happened to me once."
3. "I Got Isekaid Into The Star Trek Universe And They Quickly Understood What Was Happening"
